I would say Oreimo took a nose dive for the second half.

If you actually paid attention to the story you would know why he is the way he is. A really stupid way to rate a second season of a show based on the protagonist, rather than the overall show. The show was fine, far from being the worst.

So you say. I watched all of Oreimo, and I had no problems with the second season, so apparently you're wrong and I'm right. If you actually paid attention to the title of the show, there's no way you couldn't have seen that ending coming, so going by your own judgement, your opinion is idiotic. Pretty stupid way to rate a show since you knew how it was going to end from the first season. Attaboy champ.

It was tough choosing between Diabolik Lovers and Amnesia as the worst series of the year. In the end I went with Amnesia, because the art in Diabolik Lovers is very pretty. Plot wise, I found them both equally offensive.

Have to agree with most all the votes for worst anime of the year (though I really like Love Lab and Yowapeda that some voted for).

But I don't think I've seen my worst yet: Yu-Sibu - Yusha ni Narenakatta Ore wa Shibushibu Shushoku wo Ketsui Shimashita (Since not becoming a hero, reluctantly I’ve taken a job). Seemed like it would be an interesting premise but I couldn't get halfway through the first episode.

It's actually one that improves significantly. Sure - it's no "The Devil is a Part-Timer", but it's still quite a bit of fun if you turn your brain off for a lot of it. There is plenty of boob-jiggling, obvious innuendo, etc - totally unnecessary and at times a little offensive, and I think the show would have been a lot better with most of it removed (but that's the same for a *lot* of shows).

... Did you just say that being open about an ending makes it not a bad ending?

Another hacker no-one seems to have mentioned thus far is Michael from Witch Hunter Robin.

In 2003, when Cellphones were just phones!

Japan was ahead of the curve; their phones had iMode (IIRC the episode in question was entitled "eMode vs Supercomputer").

I can't believe I've read five pages of comments here, and no one has mentioned any of the kids from Dennou Coil for the hackers list.

I feel so ashamed. And I even have a couple of the R2 disks, too (they came with storyboards, I really wanted the storyboards for the fight between Yasako and the computer club).

Looks like I did happen to take a couple of photos from that part of the book:
